Tip Calculator — Split Bills and Calculate Gratuities Instantly

Tipping can be confusing — different service types have different norms, and splitting a bill among multiple people adds another layer of complexity. Our Tip Calculator makes it simple: enter your bill amount, choose a tip percentage, and split it any way you like.

What the Tip Calculator Does

  • Calculates tip amount: Find exactly how much to leave as a tip based on your bill total and chosen percentage.
  • Computes total bill: Original bill + tip amount = what you pay in total.
  • Splits the bill: Divide the total (including tip) evenly among any number of people.
  • Custom tip percentage: Use preset percentages (10%, 15%, 18%, 20%, 25%) or enter any custom amount.
  • Tip by rounded total: Option to round the tip so the total per person is a clean number.
  • Pre-tax tipping: Some guidelines recommend tipping on the pre-tax amount — our calculator supports both approaches.

Tipping Norms by Service Type

Restaurants (sit-down): 15–20% is standard in the US; 10–15% is common in many European countries.

Food delivery: 10–15% of the order total, with a minimum of $2–3 for small orders.

Bar service: $1–2 per drink, or 15–20% on a tab.

Taxi/rideshare: 10–15% of the fare.

Hotel services: $1–5 per bag for bellhops; $2–5 per night for housekeeping.

Bill Splitting Options

  • Equal split: Divide the total bill (with tip) equally among all people.
  • Custom amounts: Some people ordered more — enter each person's subtotal separately and split tip proportionally.
  • Round to nearest dollar: Make it easy to pay by rounding each person's share to the nearest whole currency unit.
